### Description

The Clipboard Project (CB for short) is the oh-so-awesome clipboard manager that's just like a second brain.
It's fast and lightweight, feature packed, and super user friendly.
Do way more on the computer in way less time!

According to https://github.com/Slackadays/Clipboard it should already be in voidlinux but the package seems to be orphaned for some reason.
* https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/46355

Clipboard is more of an nice to have that people might like. 

One potential use case is for people using making podman/docker/distrobox containers based on voidlinux instead of alpine linux. 

There are a few packages for such a use case that alpine provides but voidlinux doesn't such as : clipboard (this one), atuin https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/40600 and cosign https://github.com/sigstore/cosign

So what is the reason clipboard was orphaned  ? What's needed to bring it back into the repositories ? The package is in need of a new maintainer ?

I'm new to void linux and I like it a lot. Would be nice if voidlinux could become more suitable as a container distro. Please close this issue if it's not helpful to the project.
